iTerm delete key not backspacing and deleting?

iTerm got you down? Is the delete key not backspacing and deleting the left-most character (you get odd characters instead)?

Try this!

In the menu bar for iTerm, click Bookmarks -> Manage Profiles. Then click the arrow next to Keyboard Profiles. Click the profile you are using (might be xterm).

Double click on the Key Combination named "delete". Set the action to send hex code, and in the box, type: 8 (for some it might be 7f, try that if 8 doesn't work).

Click OK and test!
